Explanation

The Indian Army’s premier institution for counter-insurgency training is the Counter-Insurgency and Jungle Warfare School (CIJWS), which is situated in Vairengte, Mizoram [t1][t2]. Established in 1967 and shifted to its current location in Vairengte on May 1, 1970, the school operates under the motto 'Fight the guerrilla like a guerrilla' [t1][t2][t6]. It is recognized globally as an elite training and research establishment specializing in unconventional warfare, asymmetric combat, and jungle survival tactics [t2][t4]. The school provides training not only to Indian Army units deployed in conflict zones like Jammu and Kashmir and the Northeast but also to foreign military contingents from countries such as the U.S., U.K., and Russia [t6][t8]. While other regions like Srinagar and Tezpur are significant operational hubs for counter-insurgency, the specific specialized school is located in Vairengte [t2][t9].
